Care and Treatment of Neuromuscular Disorders

Expertise

Clinical neuromuscular evaluations are combined with sophisticated testing, including autonomic, genetic, electrophysiological, imaging, biopsy and serological tests, not available in most neurology clinics.

Our specialists are nationally recognized experts in the diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders, and are actively investigating neuromuscular disorders to find new, more effective treatments.

Representatives from Stanford's Neuromuscular Clinic, Neurosciences Department, Rehabilitation, Integrative Medicine, and the new Neuroscience building construction crew all participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluate a new medical approach, device, drug, or other treatment. As a Stanford Health Care patient, you may have access to the latest, advanced clinical trials.

Open trials refer to studies currently accepting participants. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but may open in the future.

For Health Care Professionals

Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to see all patients who are referred to us. We screen all referrals to select those who will benefit the most from a consultation. Also, most of our clinics have a significant waiting period for new consultations. Please provide as much clinical information as possible so our staff may triage the referral to the appropriate sub-specialty clinic.

We recognize that some patients may need consultation sooner than routine scheduling permits. Our doctors are happy to speak with you to facilitate urgent visits on a case-by-case basis.
